[Q] Is this a digitizer issue? - General Questions and Answers

Hi all.
I have a HTC Vivid that is giving me touch problems. It hangs for about 5-10 seconds after I wake it up from sleep. During this time, screen would not respond to any touch.
I know for a fact that the problem does not lie on software side because I have tried other stock, custom roms, kernels, S-OFF/ON, bootloader, etc and the problem still existed. So the problem is..
However after 5-10 seconds have passed, touch screen works perfect. I even tested this with touchscreen-testing apps from Google Play and it concluded that there was nothing wrong with the touchscreen.
Not playing around digitizer nor LCD screen, I opened up the phone to see if I could find disconnectivity of some sort, but with no avail.
Any ideas?

Black screen of death

The other day, I hit the power button on my touch pro, and the screen didn't come on. I did a soft reset, and it started working again. Now today, the same thing is happening, but a soft reset isn't helping.
The screen's back light comes on, the LEDs on the buttons come on, and the phone seems to be working fine. I hear all the sounds, including the HTC sound while it is booting, and the new message sound, but the screen stays black. It still recognizes touches, it just doesn't show an image. I want to do a hard reset, and will if I can get it to come one one more time, but its been about a month since I backed up my contact list. Lesson learnt there. I'm afraid it might be a hardware problem since I don't see anything while its booting either.
Anyone know if this is a known hardware issue with the touch pro? The phone is less then 3 months old, and I've been real careful with it. I haven't dropped it from more then 2 feet, and even that was onto carpet. Its the Verizon version if that makes a difference, and I'm running one of the NFSFAN roms. Its not the newest one, but rather the one posted on October 19th. I doubt its the rom, though, as I've been using it for around 2 months with no issues.
EDIT: Ok, I went into the bootloader to see if it was hardware of software. I figured if it was hardware, the screen would be black, and if it was software, it would be the rainbow. Sure enough, the screen stayed black. Hit the reset button, and the screen actually came on! Go figure. Went to do a backup, and the screen literally crapped out on me while I was watching it. Definitely a hardware problem.
similar with Touch HD... kinda
I've been having a similar problem with my Touch HD. The problem is very intermittent though and is sometimes hard to reproduce. The screen and phone will be working fine then once in a while when I push the power button to lock the phone, I'll unlock it and the screen stays black. I know that the phone is still on and even unlocked because pushing the buttons at the bottom makes the phone vibrate. The only consistency in reproducing the problem happens after I do something major on the phone such as making a phone call, browsing the internet, sometimes charging the phone. Other than that, I can sit here and push the power button all day and it'll come on and off with no problems. When the screen does go black I've taken the battery out repeatedly as well as repeatedly rebooted the phone until it comes back on. I've tried doing hard and soft resets to no avail. I've tried deactivating "turn off backlight if device is not used for" and "turn off device if not used for" without any resolve. After this I've even left the screen on (disabled backlight off) to see if it flickers or shows any sign of being faulty and it seems to be fine. I'm currently on Dutty's HD WM 6.5 Leo R5 WWE rom, but this has happened with two other roms (NRG, LIA). Other info include:
OS: 5.2.23016
Manila: 2.519192828.0
Radio: 1.14.25.24
Protocol: 52.64.25.34H
I guess the only consistent software has been my radio. Please help! Any advice would be awesome. I've tried google search and xda search without much help. Thanks

[Q] Issiu Touchscreen sensation

I have the well-known problem with the screen of my HTC. Ever since I changed it after it got broken there is a line slightly over the centre of the screen that does not work. I tried to change the ROM, the RUU, download and load it without touching the screen and many other ways to it... And it continues not working at all. When I connect my phone to the HTC to the computer, when I touch the screen it works randomly, it maximizes and minimizes just by pressing once... When I try the switching on-switching off stuff it gets solved, but the stuff of the line mentioned before. I would be grateful if you could provide me any satisfactory solution.
Thank you beforehand.

[Q] Touchscreen freezing randomly - please help!

Hi, I've been using ViperS 5.1.2 for some time now on my Sensation XE, and it used to work great for me. But since a few days I've got this really annoying freezing problem and I just cannot find a solution.
The touch screen just freezes without any reason, sometimes after using the phone for half an hour, but most of the time within a few seconds after unlocking the screen. When it freezes, the screen won't respond to anything, also not on the back or home button. If I use the on/off button though, the screen will respond again for one or more seconds. This happens randomly; a lot of times I can't even unlock the screen properly, and the rest of the time I only get the screen working normal for a at most 10 seconds. This way it can take a few minutes just getting to the settings menu, for example. The phone does not report any error; after using the on/off button it just goes on where it froze. Also the phone reacts to tilting the screen. Or when playing a video, this just keeps playing normally. So it seems to be purely the screen itself...
I tried a lot to figure out what could be the cause of this problem: uninstalled a lot of recently installed or updated apps, checked the amount of free space/RAM, cleared cache, Dalvik, used nandroid backups to return to a previous (in the past good working) state, tried if removing the sd card would make any difference and finally flashed the rom again. All to no avail; the problem keeps occurring. At first, after trying out a possible solution like the ones I've mentioned, it looks like this did the trick. Sometimes the phone appears to work normal for at most half an hour. But then the problem occurs again, and will at that point occur at a high frequency.
I am out of idea's right now and am getting quite desperate. I need this phone to work properly badly, as I will go on my vacation in a few days and really need to be able to use some of my apps then. So I do hope somebody can help me out here? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, does not make any difference. I found today that the phone is now also acting strange in clockworkmod recovery touch, that's for the first time. Can't properly use the touch screen there either any more, only with hardware buttons. So now I guess this should really be a hardware issue. Maybe the phone is just dying...
Yess its a common thing for our phone to act that way while charging.... It has somtheing to do with its poor grounding. You can find threads to help u with how to solve it.

Xiaomi Mi4- Screen Glitch Showed Random Colors, Now Phone Doesn't Work

HELP ME PLEASE!! Phone doesnt work at all, I'm so frustrated dont know what to do =(
Hello! I'm Nicolas, from Chile. And i own a Xiaomi Mi4 Since March2015.The thing goes like this, since May the screen had a fringe/bar where the touch sensor stopped working, this was NEVER a problem, because it was an area that we never use. But 2 days ago, i pressed the power button to turn on the screen and put my password, but the screen went mad and showed just fringes with lots of colors, then it barely showed the password screen, then colors again and etc, sometimes it worked fine for like 10 seconds, and it crashed again. The phone started working awfully slow, i mean, with like 4 seconds delay for EVERYTHING, i couldnt use it!!. Sometimes it worked just fine then the screen went mad again, with fringes and dots and black or blank screens. I never did hit the phone in the process, not any kick, nothing, the screen just stopped working, all black. The next day i changed the screen (because i thought there was a problem with the screen cause it was previously with an issue, and i thought the ultra laggy system was a problem with the screen or something, that the incredible lag/delay was because the screen). And the thing is when i changed the screen, a brand new one, the exact same thing happened, nothing works, it is alive because i can screencast the phone on my laptop, but it keeps running incredibly slow, it is too slow i cant even open whatsapp without waiting 2 minutes... I cant even put my password smoothly, because it is so laggy and delayed, that if i press the number "1" it shows up on the screen like 4 seconds later... And i mean it shows up << on the laptop screen>> (not to forget the brand new screen doesnt work neither)... So it is a problem with the processor? the ram? the adreno 330? what? Please i need help, i cant afford a new phone =(.
Plus info: Everything seems to be connected alright, i did the replacement myself watching lots of videos, and everything is simple and i think well done, the phone is still alive, but controlling it by the laptop, screen doesnt work, wifi doesnt work (its like there is no adapter anymore...), 3g signal doesnt work, it does not even recognize my phone company it says no service, I controled it by the laptop and now is playing music at full volume...
I didnt know where to post this, sorry if misplaced.
HELP ME PLEASE!! I would be so thankful! =(
